What do people do when anemones outgrow their tank?

[cyclgrl]

I can't be the only one with this problem. What do people generally do? I mean an anemone can grow from 3" to over a foot in a year! What's to do once they have outgrown their allocated space? I mean, what has anyone with this scenario done?

Anyone?

Realistically your choices are 1) get a bigger tank, or 2) give them away to a better home..

Most anemones get pretty darn large. This, IMO, needs to be planned for if anyone attempts keeping anemones. I used to think that BTA's were reasonably small, but man, I've seen some of those who were easily 14"-16" in size, or larger. Just massive. So even the "small" guys ... be prepared for them to grow, if you're caring for them properly!
